A Fabulous Promotional Event To Consider

Safety LED Lights Would Be A Great Giveaway At A Bike Fest - Especially For Families Who Bike Together!

As mentioned in a previous post, cycling around the USA has increased 39% from 2000 to 2010.  An even more startling statistic revealed that in Los Angeles alone, bicycling increased 32% between 2009 and 2011.  

Family biking is a growing trend that has many benefits.  Not only does it get the entire family out of the house, away from video games and cartoon reruns, but it also gives parents the opportunity to model the importance of healthy exercise, along with the pure enjoyment of being outside on a bike.

The beach city of Santa Monica just put on its first annual Family Bike Fest, a free event that included a “bike swap, bike skills training, test rides and accessories, route planning and information, food, and fun activities.”  Parents were also encouraged to have their kids bring their bikes for safety inspections.  

It is hard to imagine that this is the first bike safety event in a city of this size.  But maybe this is the first event to focus on providing bike safety education and resources to families.  It is impossible to be too prepared when it comes to a child’s safety, especially when teaching them how to enjoy cycling in a city setting that also presents so many hazards.  

• Have you been to a community safety event like this?  
• What kind of accessories and prizes did they give out to promote cycling safety?  

There are limitless beach cities that could benefit from holding such an informative event, especially when it involves the safety of families with children who love to bike.  What better way to promote safety than with BikeNSafetyPromos safety LED lights?
